Meghan, Jeff, Mason and cowpoke Owen got in late Monday night and yesterday was their first full day in Carlisle. Very, very hot and humid yesterday and today will be worse before the predicted afternoon thunderstorms arrive – the 70+ percent dew point should drop to the 40% range and it will be awesome tomorrow.

We met up on a beautiful and warm Sunday […] Interesting article here on The Magna Carta – it’s 8 century anniversary this year, its impact and suggestions of what it means.

It is wonderful and pretty well organized considering it appears to be structured via an automated process. Here is a search of photographs of Carlisle MA on the site. Below, are […] I mentioned in this post here that my parent’s had found some old photos that Alice Koford had taken and given them in the late 1960’s when they purchased the property on South Street in Carlisle. The photos were taken post WWII but before the property was sold in the estate sale (as I recall, […] I think my whole family is just chocka-block full of great people – but today, I want to do a little timely bragging about my SiL Tenley. She started a photography business 3 years ago with a vision of combining good old hard work, professionalism, networking and business acumen with something she enjoyed and was […] |
